Is this bag meant to wear/fit over your shoulder? How comfortable?

Yes it is. I wear this bag every day. I use it for riding the bus. The only problem with bag is it doesn't have a handle to grab like the Max Expedition. Bag is comfortable.

It fits over your shoulder. Your head and arm go through the strap. It's ver comfortable. I wear it hiking.

I bought this and love it. The straps are long enough to throw on your shoulder as a short shoulder bag, but since the base of the bag is kinda wide I don't usually carry it like that because it just feels awkward. But they are longenough to if you want to.

Yes! This bag is perfect. it does get long enough if you want to cross it or short enough to carry over your shoulder.

Yes, it is long enough to wear as a cross body bag. I like this bag with all the pockets & straps, however sometimes I feel like it's too big once it's full of all the stuff we need. Feel like I keep bumping into people or things in the aisle at Target with it.

Well it depends if you're the type who likes to cover up your head when sleeping then it would prob be too tight. But if you're like me & don't zip up over your head then u will be fine. It's top quality bag & by far the warmest I've ever used. Just make sure u have pad to put under u for extra protection from cold ground.

Hi Jim, I own the bag and I can attest to it's comfort. The bag has padding around the majority of the strap and it sits nicely one shoulder and through the chest area. I have uploaded pictures of me wearing the product to help you get a better idea of what it looks like. They are located in the customer uploaded photos section of the review but I have also put the photos up on my Flickr account (TarahS16). I am happy with the bag, I wore it all day at an outdoor art festival and I didn't get sore or have any tender spots when I got home that night. This bag is also the perfect size for a woman because its not too big. It won't overpower a small frame.

Yes the shoulder padding is sufficient. I don't use it every day but I've been very satisfied with this bag as my choice for a non-leather bag.

Yes, there is a little bit of padding. Considering the padding and the width of the shoulder straps, even when the bag is fully loaded with all your stuff, you will still feel quite comfortable. I've had the bag for about a month now, I'm a high school teacher and I load that bag up! It is hands down, the best bag I've ever had! Buy it! :)

My opinion only...this bag doesn't work for me for serious (heavy) equipment. Although I can get some key gear to fit (5DIII, 24-70Lf2.8, 70-200Lf2.8, extra batteries and stuff) it's just not comfortable on a shoulder. I did get the optional shoulder pad but still. It's just not comfortable. If you have medium/small camera equipment...you should be fine.

It's more of a hand held tote...I'm not sure this would be comfortable over the shoulderI bought it for my 2/12 year old to store some kitchen toys in and it's great for him...

I would say if it isn't packed full it could fit on your shoulder but it is snug up in your armpit, not uncomfortably but more snug than a purse would be. It's really meant more to be carried by hand or in the crook of your elbow

The strap is 50 inches long. I wear it across my chest. I am a male, 6'2, and weigh 200 lbs. The bag should be comfortable to wear across your chest most people.

Like over the head cross body? No the straps are not long enough. I carry it like a tote bag on my shoulder. It is suprisingly comfortable and doesn't slip off my shoulder.

Yes it fits great and sits like a messenger bag would across your body. Very comfortable to carry but definitely a little weird to get used to at first.

I've worn it across my body when biking to a yoga class. The strap is on the longer side so sometimes it will slip off my shoulder but thats from riding a road bike; I don't have that issue when I'm walking around with it on.

I can comfortably sling it onto my shoulder but not across my body... Look at the two pictures that show a man and a woman using the bag, you can see exactly how long the strap is

As someone that can't stand sleeping in mummy bags, my philosophy is that no bag is to wide or big. That said, I'm 6'1" and 250 lbs and this bag is extremely comfortable for me; however it is a big bag and may be overkill for you particularly in length. You may want to see if they have a short version to save on bulk when stored. I love this bag and am always warm (only had it down to 22 degrees and was pretty comfy.)
